Enum: Convert int value to string text.

Hi Following is the sample code to convert integer Enum value to string counterpart:

public enum Gender
{
    [Display(Name = @"No Preference")]
    NoPreference = 0,
    [Display(Name = @"Male")]
    Male = 1,
    [Display(Name = @"Female")]
    Female = 2
}

Use following code to get string text of enum:

int value_from_database = 1;
string UserGender = ((Gender)value_from_database).ToString();
